Babil Khan, son of the late legendary actor Irrfan Khan, has opened up about his relationship with his father in a recent interview, shedding light on their emotional journey together. Recounting his childhood experiences, Babil revealed how his father’s demanding shooting schedules often led to a sense of “physical distance” between them.
In a candid conversation, Babil shared how his father’s growing fame sometimes created barriers between them, as fans would swarm Irrfan whenever they were out together. Babil expressed the profound impact this had on him as a child, highlighting the pain of having his hand pulled away from his father’s grasp by overzealous crowds. Despite this, he emphasized that whenever they were together, Irrfan showered him with affection, making their time together cherished and memorable.
Babil, who recently marked his Bollywood debut with the film “Qala,” has been making waves in the industry. He also showcased his talent in the web series “The Railway Men,” featuring alongside seasoned actors like Kay Kay Menon, R. Madhavan, and Divyenndu. The series, which premiered on November 18, delves into the harrowing events surrounding the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, adding another layer to Babil’s diverse repertoire.
Looking ahead, Babil is set to captivate audiences once again in Shoojit Sircar’s upcoming directorial venture, “The Umesh Chronicles,” where he will share the screen with the legendary Amitabh Bachchan. With each project, Babil continues to carve his niche in the film industry, honoring his father’s legacy while forging his own path.
Through his candid revelations and promising performances, Babil Khan stands as a testament to the enduring bond between a father and his son, transcending the barriers of fame and adversity.
